@teapigs I have a wonderful collection of your teas on my tea shelf. Your new packaging does not show the type of tea on its side, which is a shame given how I store them. The tea on the right is your lovely chai blend, and it would be nice if the packaging could show this again!

Instead Harris lost because she did not directly address the inflation and economic pain the US public have seen.

By not addressing those circumstances, it left people to perform a simplistic check of ‘how was I under trump’ v ‘how am I now’? Which led to many voting Trump

“Largely, voters have felt economic pain due to the post-Covid inflationary period, and they’re taking it out on Biden” and Harris, said University of Michigan professor Jonathan Hanson. https://t.co/Vo17SRKU46

Kamala Harris should have pointed to the reality of covid lockdowns and the global economic downturn, and that holding steady with Democratic policies was the best was forward economically. Not to mention the botched handling of the pandemic by trump in 2020

This illuminating study into the #infiniteMonkeyTheorem reminds me of another adage: in theory, theory and practice are the same; in practice, they are not https://t.co/G4Mb3DXiXH

@piratedotcomUK do you run songwriting workshops? I see private lessons and Open Mics, would be great if you could put on some songwriting workshops across locations to help aspiring musicians refine the art of songwriting in a collaborative environment!

I hope @AdamRichman gets his belongings back, @metpoliceuk need to do their job and stop making excuses

[Steven West @Steven__West]

‘#MetPolice detective Peter Bleksley told BBC London the theft of a device was often "far down the list of police priorities"’

Shocking admission from ⁦@metpoliceuk⁩ that they won’t investigate theft, even if items can be tracked to a location https://t.co/QODVnA6iij

[Steven West @Steven__West]

Surely it’s in the public interest to stop these criminals, and return irreplaceable items back to their rightful owners?

If items have trackers officers should be IMMEDIATELY sent to those locations, there is a strong prospect of finding the items and prosecuting the offenders

‘"You should still report it because a crime reference number may help you with your insurance claim," he said’

So that’s all we can expect from an investigation, a crime reference number?!

@UnitedUtilities insiders: "We’ll have judged the risk of ⁦@EnvAgency⁩ .. understanding the permit breach to be minimal as they’re under-resourced and incompetent”

@timfarron “this implies the complete failure of regulation in the #UKWaterIndustry “ https://t.co/CC1LSBasOz

[Steven West @Steven__West]

Sure it’s the rail company’s job to make it impossible to purchase incorrect ticket discounts, not for them to offer the purchase of such a ticket, just so they can prosecute you for buying an invalid ticket?! Unbelievable! https://t.co/PFqg1qAFPC

If every person in the uk donated the £6k to the Treasury that #KierStarmer has greedily taken in gifts, the government would raise ~£414bn - over 20 TIMES the £20bn that ⁦@RachelReevesMP⁩ wants to raise 😮 ⁦@ChrisMasonBBC⁩ ⁦ https://t.co/9cRilPjYuC

[Steven West @Steven__West]

The fact it had to be pointed out to #KierStarmer that accepting such gifts is outrageous speaks volumes about the entitlement that exists in ⁦@UKLabour⁩ - would never have happened under ⁦@jeremycorbyn⁩ https://t.co/spx0WAzq0d

“The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale..choosing to keep the Conservatives' two-child limit..which entrenches children in poverty, while inexplicably accepting expensive personal gifts..is undeserving..of a Labour prime minister.” https://t.co/5NHjcHK2sT

[Steven West @Steven__West]

‘Polls suggest Sir Keir's personal ratings have dropped rapidly.. with one poll by Ipsos Mori suggesting he is now the second least popular prime minister since the 1990s, beaten only by Liz Truss.’

Time to just get on with the job and stop complaining https://t.co/MtAQGEverX

[Steven West @Steven__West]

It’s as if @UKLabour genuinely believe they won the election, rather than benefitting from the meltdown in Tory support, and their doom and gloom messaging is what will maintain public support.

They need to step up and fix the problems, rather than banging on about them.

[Steven West @Steven__West]

“they feel they need to establish in the public’s mind what a difficult inheritance they have.. but.. it could spook patients, and make it really difficult to raise staff morale. Hope is important."
#LabourDoomAndGloom on #NHS is not fixing the issues..

‘The prime minister, a keen Arsenal fan, has also come under pressure for accepting thousands of pounds worth of free football tickets over the last Parliament.’

Why accept these as a politician, gifts for political favours? Surely that’s the only reason https://t.co/P4fhhgOseX

"Voters were promised change but instead the #Labour Party is copying the worst excesses of the #Tories on sleaze, austerity cuts, and cronyism."

Well said ⁦@KirstySNP⁩ https://t.co/P4fhhgOseX
